It was a clean place and the staff was adequate. Low star reviews because the wifi barely worked and as a result the streaming on the TV in the room kept buffering. The crew did not do a very good job keeping the breakfast stocked.

Staff was friendly and very helpful. When we needed a change in pillows they responded quickly and hassle free. Breakfast was well stocked and offered different options each day. Really liked the fresh coffee brewing stations available 24 hours a day. Close to nice restaurant options on main plaza in Covington. Our room was comfortable and we were able to rest undisturbed. Would recommend a stay here when traveling to Cincinnati.
